From Desk jockey to gym owner

I'm an electrical engineer (and now personal trainer) with big dreams of owning my own warehouse/athletic performance gym in Minneapolis, MN. I believe that anyone with any genetics can be transformed into an athlete. I love to make you laugh, but I hate hearing excuses. Work your ass off, get the results, have fun afterwards.

I Lost 80 Pounds!!

If you want to read about the background story, click here. I’m tired of typing tonight (lots of updates) so just take a look at what Derrick has to say…

I’VE LOST 80 POUNDS!!

When I “met” Dave on a motorcycle forum, before he had this awesome website, I weighed 245 lb. I wasn’t a “true” client, but Dave helped me frequently as I was learning. He would recommend new exercises and routines along with sharing with me his nutrition expertise. With his help, I’ve lost 80lbs. and weigh 165 lb. a year later!
Some people might say I had abnormal results, but I feel if you have the drive you can absolutely do it. My only regret is not having Dave as a full time trainer. My results would have been even more impressive. Having him as a trainer would have significantly improved my workout routines, “diet”, and would have prevented a few injuries by having correct form (I.E. running).

The reason i chose Dave is that he was always there to answer questions, give advice, or help keep you motivated. Whether you want to lose weight, gain weight, or improve in sports, I truly believe Dave is the best bang for the buck. In my case, Dave really was an “athlete Creator” since I’ve decided to become a personal trainer myself.

ROCK!!
